THE SCHOONER RELEASED.
The Annie Hodgdon Fine, II Is Thought,
VIII BE Remitted.

HALIFAX, July 3O.-The prompt and EN-
phatc action of Consul General Phelan in
reporting the conduct of Collector Atwood,
of Shelburne, to the Ottawa government
and his demand for compensation, speedily
induced Atwood to release the captured
schooner Annie Hodgdon without payment
of the S17 expenses in addition to the S40(
fine. There is no doubt but that the fine
will be RENTED. 1t would not likely have
been inflicted but for the questionable con
duct of the Hodgdon's skipper, a Novs
Scotian, while on previous visit to Shel.
burne. The men seized off Souris, whom
Collector Foley refused to allow to be ship
ped home ON American fishing vessels, will
arrive here on the steamer Worcester to-mor
row and proceed to Boston.
The American war ship Yantic arrived at
Port Hawkesbury today en- route for the
North bay fisheries. She was followed by
the Canadian cruiser Acadia. The Acadia's
mission is believed to be to attempt to fine
the schooners French and Argonaut, and il
she can get them inside the limit to capture
them. Admiral Luce is in constant com
mnnication with Consul General Phelan, anc

tails of the fisheries question,

A POOR MANS BARN.

The main building is 20X40 feet with d
Shed fifteen feet wide on one side and one
end, making the entire building 3JXJJ
feet, and is built as follows: Get out eight
large white oak posts, fifteen feet long,
and set them in the ground three feet one
at each corner and two between on the
sides of main building. These must be
square on top and all on a level; on the
side posts place hewn plates Axe inches,
and then four pieces crossed from each post
to one on the opposite side; then put in
smaller posts, fifteen feet from side to end
posts, for the shed they should be seven feet
above the ground. BY putting posts
where marked in the plan, PKG inch
pieces will do for plates. Now put up
your rafters on main building, and then
spike the end of shed rafters to them; it
can be inclOsed by spilling 2X4 or PKG
pieces on the posts to nail the siding to;
the inside can be arranged to suit ones
convenience.
In the barn shown in the cut the main
part, 20xl0 feet, is used for hay; the side
shed has a granary 15X25 feet, and six
stalls for horses or mules, three on each
side of a six foot passage, the horses heads
being next to the passage, The managers
are made by setting posts in the ground
and mailing boards on the inside, and
make partitions between the stalls in the
same way. The shed at the end is for
five COWS; there is a manger made the en-
tire length of the shed on posts set in the
ground, which come up high enough to
tie the cattle to. There are no partitions
between the cattle, and there are no par
titions between main building and sheds,
except at the granary.
